On Site Training Programs

Basic and advanced obedience training is designed to establish and promote a proper relationship between you, your family members and your dog. Our methods are fast, effective, and easy to learn. Our techniques utilize your dog's natural drives and instincts, which means your dog will learn commands faster and easier than with other less behavior-oriented methods. Our methods also help your dog respond, respect, and bond to you more readily. All dogs must go through an initial evaluation and consultation before signing up for any obedience program.

All lessons are personalized, and taught as a private class. The whole family is welcome, and all who handle the dog daily, will receive one on one instructions.

We offer three different levels of obedience training - Level I being the most basic and Level III the most advanced. Most dogs fit right in the middle and thus, Level I+II is our most popular program. However, an evaluation is required before we can determine the appropriate level for your dog. Our obedience programs are available individually or you can choose one of our packages to save you money.
